In the meantime, do you have suggestions for how the woman in an FLR can get past the deep seeded (cultural I believe) duty of always looking to pleasure/satisfy the man without much regard to ourselves?

If you believe your woman intellectually accepts the idea of your relationship being woman centered rather than male centered, but still has to contend with deep-seated conditioning and inhibitions, my opinion is that the key is consistency in word, and especially action, on your part. I took it as my job to normalize this new way of being for her. My wife has said to me several times that it was really smart for me to set the conditions where she could comfortably asset her dominance rather than expect her to change at the snap of a finger. This allowed her to come to it gradually, in her own time, by developing new habits and letting go of old ones. It was much more of an evolution than a revolution.
When it is appropriate, I will remind her that we BOTH like her being in control and we are both pursuing a mutual goal.
I think it was also helpful that I avoided confusion by explaining that I wasn’t proposing a mere shift in balance away from my sexual pleasure to hers. I proposed an entirely different paradigm where the SOLE purpose of sex in our relationship is her pleasure and this extends to the point that she literally owns my orgasms.
Slowly, we have progressed to the point where I think we are finally confronting the final vestiges of her wanting to show some deference to my pleasure. We actually had a great conversation about this the other morning when we were being intimate. She started the topic of conversation by expressly acknowledging that she loves and appreciates the fact that owns my orgasms, but feels that once she has decided to permit me one, I must have a preference for how she allows it. “What do you like most? Coming inside me? When I use my hand?” She asked me.
“I promise I am not trying to be difficult, but my preference truly is what brings you joy in the moment. If I know you want to feel me coming inside you, or if you want to watch my cum while you use your hand or instruct me to jerk off for you, or you want to feel the ‘wicked pleasure’ of denying me, then that is what makes it ‘best’ for me.”
She still seemed a little incredulous. Then it occurred to me that I had objective evidence to offer. “Don’t you agree that my orgasms, when you permit them, are much more powerful than they used to be before we agreed that sex is for your pleasure?” I asked.
”Oh, absolutely. But isn’t that just from build up because they are less frequent?” she replied.
”Not really,” I said. “It is because my orgasms are now so much more between my ears than in my penis. And I know you get that. How else would you explain the fact that you had an orgasm the other day without being touched simply from teasing and denying me. That was really hot, by the way,” I added.
She asked me to open my sex tracker app so she could look at the data I have been collecting. We compared the data from the first few months, when our FLR was new, with the data from the last few months. The emergence of her preferences was abundantly clear. In the early records, my orgasms were much more frequent and they substantially outnumbered denials. Back then it was common for me to cum inside her during PIV. She also occasionally instructed me to “take her” in a dominant fashion.
As things are now, she prefers to allow me cum inside her about once a month, at most, and it has been more than a year and a half since she wanted me to “take her.” My number of orgasms has easily been reduced by 50% and they are substantially exceeded by the number of denials. The ratio of our orgasms had gone from 3 to 1 in my favor, to 3 to 1 in her favor, to the “new normal” of five orgasms for her for each one I have.
So, in a nutshell: patience, consistency, and communication.
I have no guilt about my sexual greed...none. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's one of the reasons why you are the bar by which other Dommes are measured. :-)
DeleteThey should find a higher level bar...truly. :)
DeleteOh, come on now vanessa, being humble makes you even more attractive.
DeleteWhat fantastic advice. I can understand the concept of being selfish sexually anc the entire focus being on you can be difficult to come to grips with at the beginning for some Dom's/Domme's.
ReplyDeleteI agree consistcy and communication are key, on the part of both partners. I also think encouragement from the submissive partner, reinforcing that the lifestyle is what they want is important.
